The North-West University (NWU) is a publicresearch university located on three campuses in Potchefstroom, Mahikeng and Vanderbijlpark in South Africa. The university came into existence through the merger in 2004 of the Potchefstroom University for Christian Higher Education, a large, historical university dating back to 1869, which also had a branch in Vanderbijlpark, and the University of North-West (formerly the University of Bophuthatswana).[4] With its merged status, the North-West University became one of the largest universities in South Africa with the third largest student population (full-time and distance education) in the country.[5] NWU ranks among top universities locally, in Africa and globally.[6]
